Malareaux

"Fifty cents on Malareaux,"
the man said in defiance.
"For that is all she is worth"
the clerk looked on in despair,
thinking of a second job,
showing some legs,
flowering up her cheeks,
tossing seductive looks,
to pay for a small flat,
and for the children
he left behind.
She looked him straight in the face and said,
" Malareaux will win tonight,
take you by surprise,
For there is gold and luster in that stead,
if you'd bother looking her in the eye!"
